Everything seems to have quieted
down in Priuce Rupert since the el-
ection of a new couneil and mayor. It
is just possible conditions were found
ta be not so hopeless, and that-a little
care and economy now will pull the
city through. Rupert has a council
that will watch expenditures and try
te reduce taxes.

The Communist organizations in the

operate under, huve been having a bad
time of it in Ottawa, All parties have
condemned the Communist movement

their little branches are located, and
the New Hazelton branch, small as it

Here and There

“The decrease in freight car
loadings which began In 1939 has
contiaued almost uninterruptedly.
In 1951 up to the end of the first
week of December, 558,359 less
freight cars had been loaded on al!
Canadian Railways than for the
sine period of the previous year.
During, the same period of this
year 376,016 less cars were loaded
then in 1931, The decline in pas-
senger business has been rela-
tively the same. The resultant ef-
fect upon railway earnings has
been naturally disastrous. For the
first ten months of 1931 Canadian
Pacific gross revenue declined
22.1 per cent, as compared with
that of 1980. For the first ten
months of this year now closing
‘there was ae further decline of
15.4 per cent.. The decline con-
tinues, and there certainly ap-
pears to be no evidence in sight
that for many years we shall see
them entirely eliminated and our
earnings back where they were in
1928."—B. W. Beatty, K.C., Chair-
Iman and President, Canadian Pa-
cific Railway, in his review ot

Recent payment by Great Brit-
ain of $95,550,000 war debt instal-

via ‘Canada,and was carried aeross
the Dominion on a special Can-
adian Pacifle train, having abso-
lute right-of-way, The train trav-
elled without lights and was pro-
tected by scores of armed guards.

“Darkand uncertain asthe out-
look may appear to the casual ob-
server, I stitl think that in this
wider field the year has not been
without important developments
leading towards trade stabiliza-
tion and encouragement."—E. W.
Beatty, K.C,, Chairman and Presi-
dent, Canadian Pacific Railway,
in his review of 1932,

“Through intelligent education
‘the economic and social futility
